Efficient detection and typing of phage-plasmids [PDF]
mBioPhage-plasmids (P-Ps) are temperate phages that replicate as plasmids during lysogeny. Despite their high diversity, they carry genes similar to phages and plasmids. This leads to gene exchanges and to the formation of hybrid or defective elements, which

Long-read sequencing-based in silico phage typing of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2021 Background Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) are successful nosocomial pathogens able to cause hospital outbreaks. In the Netherlands, core-genome MLST (cgMLST) based on short-read sequencing is often used for molecular typing.

Twenty-three years of Klebsiella phage typing: a review of phage typing of 12 clusters of nosocomial infections, and a comparison of phage typing with K serotyping [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2000 To review phage typing of 12 clusters of nosocomial Klebsiella infections which occurred between 1974 and 1997, and to compare phage typing and K serotyping. Materials and methods A total of 489 clinical and laboratory Klebsiella isolates were phage typed using 110 different phage preparations and K typed by counter current immunoelectrophoresis ...
